Just a short list of the few things I can't live without during finals week!
1. Coke
I know soda is bad for you, and I actually was doing a good job not drinking a lot of it this semester, but around finals week I just had to cave. I bought myself a box of 12 last week and I don't regret the decision. Sometimes the cold sugary-ness just gives me that extra burst of energy I need.
2. Dry shampoo
Seriously, when I'm doing finals homework until 4 am the last thing on my mind is a shower. Take a can of dry shampoo & bam, you're presentable (kind of).
3. Wine
Granted, this is a necessity at any given point of the semester, but I really crave it when I have to write papers into the wee hours of the morning. Since I'm a broke college girl, I go for quantity over quality and get the huge $8.00 of Sutterhome. It's such a bargain
4. Hot pockets
Also bad for you. But they're so easy and delicious, and they're perfect to pop in the microwave when you don't have time to cook. My only beef with them is that you can pretty much only get them in packs of two or huge jumbo packs. And the jumbo packs are great but they don't have variety packs so you're looking at like fifteen pepperoni pizza hot pockets when you really want a mixture of ham and cheese, meatball, and pizza.
5. So. Many. Index. Cards.
The only way I can study is by writing things down so I pretty much kill entire forests every semester with the amount of flash cards I use for certain types of tests.
6. Patience from my friends & family
...because I'm the worst at communicating when I have a lot going on. I'll read texts and forget to answer them until the next day, so hopefully no one takes it personally.
7. Sleep
Just kidding.
